Reseñas de la Crítica

“Listening to Daniel Hancock's End of Darkness was a brilliant experience! It reminded me of many of the action based radio shows I’ve listened to over the years - engaging from the beginning. The character’s were well cast, too, and the script was nicely formatted for streaming a Bible drama of this magnitude. I specifically loved the scene where Jesus clears the temple. Great work all around.” (Jerry Della Salla, actor)

"End of Darkness is quite an ambitious project. From the sound design and voice acting to the visual companion, you can tell a lot of hard work was invested in this production. Taking a look at the gospel story from several unique angles, this dramatic re-telling will certainly provoke thought in and bring inspiration to the listener. I found myself immersed in the story - feeling the sorrow of those who betrayed Christ, holding my breath at the crucifixion scenes, and grinning as the hope built to a climax at the end. Great job to everyone involved! I’d recommend this audio drama to anyone who wants a closer look at what those around Christ would have experienced during his time on earth.” (Jonathan Winstead)

review

far too much yelling, focused too much on yelling instead of authentic emotional processing in a realistic manner.

Excellent!

I was very impressed with the dramatic quality AND the Biblical content of this story. As a student of the Bible, I tend to be very picky about so-called “true-to-the-Scriptures” storylines. This story, however, did a very good job of actually remaining “true-to-the-Scriptures”. There were a very few minor examples of certain things being said by someone other than the person identified in the Bible, and a few times things did not fit the Biblical timeline exactly. Other than that, however, I have absolutely no complaints — only praise! I do not believe you will be disappointed by listening to this audio drama. In my opinion, it deserves 5 stars all the way!

Admirable effort

Although it’s generally a weaker story device to rely so heavily on flashbacks, it does allow for an in story narrator. The overall program is generally better written than acted, with a respectable effort put into the music, such that the more dramatic scenes are generally more effective than the quieter ones. It comes across primarily as a stage play stylistically, and seems likely to be primarily stage trained actors, and Mic’d, acted, and directed as such. They would have been better served to have invested in at least a few professional voice actors with a broader range of vocal style and sound. Overall, an enjoyable and worthwhile retelling of the story of Jesus, I found several parts very moving, and I hope to see even better releases from this studio in the future.
